High-Performance Coaching Basics
High-performance coaching is for those ready to up their game, are at a pivot point in their career, or find themselves having to handle a major life set-back.
A Fundamental Upgrade — This might mean breaking bad habits or adding new life skills to your habitual go-tos. Or perhaps because you are ready to fine-tune them, and this is all but impossible to do without help from the outside.
Handling major life setbacks — High-performance coaching can help with the resilience needed when major setbacks occur.
Career change and pivot points — Coaching can make the transition from manager to leader faster and more successfully. Or perhaps when you decided to pivot from one profession to another you didn’t expect that the inertia of self-image would have you driving down the highway with your brakes on, and you need to do something about it.
Big picture career or life planning — Not everyone leaves high school with a clear picture for their life, and even those who do, often discover some revision is needed. There is robust evidence that shows that people who have clear goals, plan to reach them and pursue them are more likely to be successful—and happier.
NOTE — For the duration of coaching with us, the coachee sets the meta agenda and from there, the work is dialogical with clear rules and agreement. By agreement, there will also be aspects of the process directed by the coach and others by the coachee.

Unlock Your Organization's Potential
Hi, I’m Karen Judd Smith and This is My approach to Coaching & Leadership Development
First, starting with the obvious: we are all called to be leaders. After all, we are the only ones who can lead our own lives.
Second, we are social animals and we create groups and organizations so we can do more, better, together.
When we have leadership titles we become a pivot point in our organizations.
At both the personal and organizational levels, your effectiveness rests with YOU. It’s as simple as that. You make all the difference in the world for which you are central.
Cultivating core capacities makes all the difference in everything you do.
High performance does not mean working harder or longer. While hard work may well be part of the big picture, high performance is about strategic, meaningful improvement.
Coaching helps bridge the gap between where you are now, and where you want to be.
I coach so you can live your life better. Much better.
Clarify Your Goals, Extend Your Impact
Goals are spoken about so often that we begin to feel like we really do know what we want. But first off, our goals, large and small, should always be in flux to some degree. So yes, we do need to be good with goals, something most are not. Not just bad at reaching them (check out New Year’s resolutions) but even worse at setting them.
We don’t presume you are good at setting goals that really matter. Perhaps your check list for the day, but meaningful goals are not that simple.
Getting clear on your goals is a serious business and once set will give you back months, perhaps years of your life.
Because clear goals shorten your time to impact, you then get to make even more! We never jump over this almost sacred task!
Goals Require Active Vision,
Team Strategy & Roadmap
Do you remember planning and preparing for a road-trip, excursion, or journey of some kind? It was probably filled with excitement, details, laughter, annoyance, and a plan. We work with you to make the pathway to your goals an exciting and fulfilling journey. And we don’t forget the emergency first-aid kit.
Create & Maintain Healthy Operations & Culture
Our inside out or transilience approach leaves the tech and specialization tools to those in your organization or vendors you already use. What we do is give you the leadership strategies and skills needed for inside-out health. That is, for high-performance.
We focus on developing the “soft” leadership skills and high individual performance needed for teams and organizations to operate optimally in today’s VUCA world—Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous.
I Also Give Hands-On Workshops & Talks
Teams are the heart and soul of any great organization and they are my passion.
Each organization is unique and deserves customized approaches to training so as not to miss the mark or waste hard earned corporate dollars.
